Celldweller - Blackstar 

Haha, it's okay. I don't blame Poland. There are trolls everywhere & they're all the same. They foolishly think their opinion matters but sadly for them, it doesn't. //_^

I love how most of the comments now are telling Theists and Atheists to stop arguing; havent seen a single atheist/theist comment...

Thanks!! //_^

Guys. Stop complaining about people who are complaining about comments about people complaining about complaints. Wait, now I'm complaining, CRAP.

Celldweller is the only person who i've seen able to infuse rock so well with electro and dubstep..... he's so good. His asking alexandria remix is so good!

Why do people hate this song? Its actually very good.

I don't understand why this track has so many dislikes. Klayton has always mixed various styles together in his music. To me this album wasn't a break from character. He basically channeled all of his influences for this one. It think it's amazing.

“Sing hallelujah cause you cant change anything.” My favorite line

My brother introduced me to this a few years ago and we both still love it!

I wish I was skilled enough to create an animation, cause I vividly see very specific scenes in my head with how this track plays

To all those of you arguing about science and religion... don't waste your time. SING HALLELUJAH CAUSE YOU CAN'T CHANGE ANYTHING!

So if I'm getting the story right from the comments, the 500 dislikes are from some failed religious crusade against this song?

As somebody who had never heard of Dubstep until very recently, I always considered Celldweller's work to be Electronic Rock occasionally combined with orchestrals. So much classic Electronica is now being rebranded by fans as Dubstep for some reason.

i've listened to celldweller for a few years now, absolutely love it. great stuff

Klasse !!! Klasse Song !! Klasse Musik !!❤

You must have wished on it Because I saw them riding in on a Blackstar They'd rather chew than spit And they're full of piss and vinegar There's no way to persuade, them to give up their crusade They've come to grant the wish, you should have never made Sing Hallelujah because you can't change anything They'll let you try To reverse everything Don't waste your time Sing Hallelujah because you can't change anything They move without a sound And their eyes will paralyze who gaze into They'll leave you gagged and bound To the whip of the wish they've granted you There's no way to persuade, them to give up their crusade They've come to grant the wish, you should have never made Sing Hallelujah because you can't change anything They'll let you try To reverse everything Don't waste your time Sing Hallelujah because you can't change anything Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah ... Looks like they're over it I saw them riding off on a Blackstar With nothing left to chew, they split Because it makes no difference who you are They'll let you try To reverse everything Don't waste your time Sing Hallelujah cause you can't change anything They'll let you try To reverse everything Don't waste your time Sing Hallelujah cause you can't change anything Sing Hallelujah cause you can't change anything Sing Hallelujah cause you can't change anything

Oh man....so many memories of college listening to this song it was one of my favourites. Cyber goggles, tie in dreads, new rock boots! Now I'm a 32 year old mum 🤣

I love this song so much...

Great song and great album. If anyone has followed Klayton since the "Circle of Dust" days, they know that his work is constantly evolving and changing. In my opinion, for the better!

Perfect mix of metal and electro, I'm freaking in love with this band now!

God I love Celldweller.

I never really got into this guys other music, but the chorus of this song is genuinely one of the greatest things I've ever heard.

This song is great... I listen to it when I workout I love your music

Thank you for this amazing song, Celldweller!!

That moment when u found the song two weeks ago and you have now heard it around 20 times....

This song is absolutely amazing. Such a wonderful voice you have, Klayton. The pacing is also very nice. I have a little more hope for the future of music because of your work.

Happy 10 years Blackstar! ♥

That's masterpiece❤️ I love this album and this song! 💗 You're best Klayton👍

This song = break dancing on Mars, swimming in the void, ballet on the surface of the moon. So majestic.

This has got to be one of the best songs for the modern world. Keep it up Klayton, you're doing great!

Missed this one when this album released. Now I'm catching up in listening to it ;D

One of my all time fav . Just now leaving a comment ⭐

Its an amazing song regardless of religious or not. If your too busy reading these comments your not spending enough time listening to the music and that is just an epic fail to miss such an awesome song. ^-^

The perfect pukeing noise at the beginning gives it a real good kick

Its been years, still one of my favorites, along with eon and the lucky one, but then again, all of Klays music is epic

the first and maybe the best song i ever hear by celldweller

this song is craaazy, this guy is on a Mozart lvl with the pop blends, my man got a band in his head

I don't think I have found a Celldweller song I don't like. Keep on doing what you love Klayton, your fans will always be here, if they leave they weren't fans to begin with.

you just powned all...like a boss.

It is humanely impossible to dislike Celldweller. That's a fact.

This is quite literally Homura's themesong for Madoka Magika!

I love this song, it's pretty much THE SONG we all expected since the first chapter, like cherry on a cake ;)

The Blackstar is finally here!!!!!

I can't stop listening to this, it's genius.

This song is crazy great

Does Klayton still make music? I remember the hype around Blackstar (you know, when he was releasing two songs every half a year before the album itself came out) and how fucking epic it was when this whole record finally hit the shelves. This song made me piss myself with excitement, all these songs together are so catchy and tell such amazing stories that stir one's imagination. It's four years now and I still remember every song, must have listened to this album a million times back then. But then Celldweller got kind of quiet. Even the website was last updated in like 2014. So what happened?

PERFECT music

Just fantastic

Haleluja means also "oh, finally!" And if clayton says "thanks god i don't believe in luck"don't means that the song is about religion. DID YOU EVER LISTENED ELECTRIC OR INDUSTRIAL NU METAL ON A CHURCH??? YEAH, THE PRIEST IS A DUBSTEP DJ!

Atheists or christians, JUST FUCKING ENJOY THE MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!

Klayton this is some awesome stuff. Your music gets better every time I hear it. You're an inspiration

awesome song!

This comment section is cancer

still slaps klay

Amazing song!

I love you, celldweller!!

It's the job of the artist to stir up some dust sometimes. It's the job of the public to discuss and exchange opinions. And my job to watch chaos unravel while singing Hallelujah, I can't change anything. So what if I'm an Atheist? What does it matter to the song? Just enjoy it.

Who's still listening in 2023?

2018 до сих пор слушаю. Обожаю эту песню.

love this!

Cobrak says Hi :)

He is saying might as well sing praise cause there is nothing you can do about it. Thats all. Just for once can people just enjoy something and not pick it apart.

I love Celldweller

The universe will move as it will and there is nothing you can do Everything is fixt, and nothing is under your control Nothing is free will, nothing is your fault Nothing matters and nobody has a choice Everything has already been decided Don't feel guilty over things you've done, don't hate yourself for pain you caused Don't waste your time, don't spend it feeling bad Sing hallelujah cause you can't change anything

thumbs up if you praise Celldweller and his beautiful creations!!!!!

I simply love his new songs.... Old ones were great, but this is AWESOME........ Klayton, carry on with your good work, and Polish "horde players" go troll someone else!

What an amazing album cover

Amazing song

This song has just been added in Step Revolution's StepmaniaX!

You say you can´t change anything but how come you suddenly change at 4:01 from wearing a full gear futuristic space suit with space goggles to clothing from this age and no space goggles anymore (the profile pic does pretty much fit spot on over the picture quite nicely)? Oh well, must be something RU-vid brought to you then technically you´re right. Hallelujah.

Amazing song.

Hallelujah Can't change anything !!!!

dont let music depict religion i am catholic and i listen to this shit and you dont see me bitching about it. Just listen to the damn song and if you dont like it keep it to yourself. Go Celldweller rock on!!!!

Everyone in comments arguing about theism and atheism..... All I can think of is that Klayton must have watched Puella Magi Madoka Magika and this is a song about Kyubey and Homura. There’s no way to persuade them to give up their crusade They’ve come to grant the wish... you should have never made Sing Hallelujah 'cause you can’t change anything They’ll let you try To reverse everything Don't waste your time Sing Hallelujah 'cause you can’t change anything

LOVE IT

This is why I love Celldweller!

Makes me think of a world like Warhammer 40K, not like it's actually religious! More like it's describing some formidable space Crusaders who might have their own religious agenda, but are characters in a sci-fi not a real-world people, and aren't Klayton's opinion. Like Sisters of Battle or Space Marines - or the Bene Gesserit. We all know Klayton's a BIG sci-fi fan, and having relentless zealots in a futuristic setting is a common sci-fi trope, and as a lot of his songs play out like sci-fi short stories to music, it makes more sense that he's singing about that than some fatalistic/deterministic take on Christianity.

2019 ?

sing halleluja cause you can't change anything! God I love this song 💖 Klayton we don't deserve you 😭🥹🤧

I heard a couple of songs on RU-vid, and loved it so much that I decided to buy this album. Congrats Klayton and everybody else involved with Celldweller, you broke my 18+ month drought of not buying any music. This was just too awesome to resist!

This song doesn't get enough love. Every other song has been remixed half to death... not Blackstar, though.

Think I have to leave my boyfriend... I just fell in love... btw...Who are those idiots who disliked this song?!

Amen brother.

I'm so gonna download this song!!!

So what cell is religion

And this.. is.. to go.. even further beyond!

Fucking hell, all you atheists and religious people fighting on the comment section give your respective ideologies a bad name. Go back to the special needs school if you want to argue. For all the other sane people... Let's dance. ~Mia San Sumia, Pegasus Breeder and Root Beer Connoisseur

Understanding the working of the mind, the beliefs of a person are expressed in their art, because the mind generated, or fabricated that art, based on their beliefs. It is impossible to genuinely create something without using mental associations and beliefs.

I'm Polish? And I LOVE Klayton's music. Don't hate us. Don't be racist. Don't be haters. Not every Polish people dislike his music. I think he is very talented and I love his music. That's all.

I hope this album won't be the end. Our support will be GIFT FOR YOU. I CAN'T WAIT for another album.

So if i'm religious (Christian) am I suppose to not like this song? Hmm... was I suppose to buy the album as soon as it came out it and listen to it frequently over the next 3 years? I'm not sure... Well that's a lie, I am. Of course though to me Jesus is infinitely more important than Celldweller (even though he is my favourite musician), the album is a great fictional story that, though it picks up on religious themes, shouldn't be taken too seriously. I have my own interpretation of every song which probably differs from a lot of other people. This album also inspired a story I have now fleshed out that can deliver a positive Christian message. True the lyrical content isn't for everyone, but it leaves more room for thought than you'd think. For me God created good from this, and inspired me through it.

whats the fucking deal with this and christianity? whats the connection...

Super Album!!

I freaking love this! Utter tuuuuuune!

BUT MUH JEEESUS. IMA DISLIKE THIS. THAT WILL SHOW EM

anyone just come from soul eater?

I CAN'T STOP PUTTING THIS SONG ON LOOP!!!!! IT'S SUCH A FUCKING JAM!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool celldweller that's one of your best songs
